We've received a few suggestions about allowing media in comments. So, new this week: r/Wastewater allows pics in comments, with a few guidelines.

- please keep it on topic. A) Answering a question by commenting a picture of how something works at your plant: perfect. B) A tongue-in-cheek image that's somewhat on topic with the post, sure. C) Random jokes, a picture promoting your project... those are spam and subject to our sub's Rule 3. D) r/Wastewater Mod Team and platform admins reserve right to discretion on the above.

- GIFs and videos are currently not allowed, to avoid clogging the feed.

I notice the rules insights don't show flair the user applied before or after the guidance message, the insights summary only shows the post's title and body, is there work toward showing flair in those insights?

Multiple of my rules (r/Wastewater) that I have auto-enforced are about flair.

I was sent this job listing, it’s in Winter Park, Colorado!

TLDR: when posting, you should be able to add multiple pics to the post.

Good morning to one of the best subs on Reddit!

Lots of you have asked about us allowing more media on posts; whereas, since before I was even a sub member the only media allowed has been 1 image. I’ve been letting that ride a while, and looking at what new features are valuable and how easy they would be for our mod team to moderate. Looks like allowing “galleries” (multiple photos in the original post) is a good fit for us.

Still no media in the comments (including images, videos, GIFs). You should be able to include in your comment a link to outside storage like IMGUR, though, if you feel the need.

Any comments or suggestions are always welcome! Feel free to comment here or message the mods.

I co-mod a career-oriented sub, users often comment “sorry I was only able to post one picture, or “wish I was able to post a video, or “wish I could post a picture in the comments. I inherited the sub a year ago with media settings allowing only one image per post and no media in comments.

So I’m considering opening up one or more of those features. Are there drawbacks?
- possibility of slowing down the loading of our sub’s feed?
- possibility of doxxing or other ill content in the media, I’ve thought of.
- other considerations that make these media types tough to moderate.

I got a report in my mod queue, (Screenshot in comments ) the flag on the content (comment in this case) says “user report”. I’m not sure what that means, and the comment is fine in context, and the user doesn’t have any wild content showing on his profile. If it were you would you investigate more, or just ignore reports and approve?
